WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — By using photons and electron spin qubits to control nuclear spins in a two-dimensional material, researchers at Purdue University have opened a new frontier in quantum science ...

The length scale over which the travelling electron spin keeps the memory of its initial orientation is known as the spin-diffusion length 1,2,3,4,5, which is a critical parameter for many spintronic ...

"God does not play dice." This famous remark by Albert Einstein critiqued the probabilistic nature of quantum mechanics. Paradoxically, his theory of relativity has become an essential tool for ...

In the rapidly evolving field of quantum computing, silicon spin qubits are emerging as a leading candidate for building scalable, fault-tolerant quantum computers. A team of researchers from the ...

A research team has taken a major step forward in the field of spintronics, a technology that uses not only the charge but ...

Electrons have a property called spin, which can be crudely thought of as the rotation of an electron about an axis. As an electron moves, its motion and spin can become linked through an effect known ...

Harnessing the magnetic moment, or spin, of electrons rather than their electric charge, physicists have achieved a breakthrough toward the development of a new breed of computing devices that can ...

University of California scientists working at Los Alamos National Laboratory and at the University of California, Los Angeles have demonstrated the ability to detect the spin of a single electron in ...

Electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy, also known as electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, is a powerful analytical technique used to probe the magnetic properties of paramagnetic ...

The spin of an electron is in many ways the archetypical quantum system. If you measure the spin, it will take one of two values: spin up or spin down. It's a perfect binary, which makes it good for ...

A team of German researchers has taken a significant step towards exploiting electron spin interactions to store and process information. The group, from the Max Planck Institute and the universities ...
